If the smell of a fresh notebook sparks joy, if smooth-inked pens make your day, or if you’ve ever admired a perfectly organised desk, then National Stationery Week 2025 is your kind of celebration.
From Monday 12th to Sunday 18th May, join fellow stationery lovers across the UK in this week-long tribute to creativity, organisation, and the timeless joy of putting pen to paper.
Why Stationery Still Matters
In a world that’s constantly going digital, National Stationery Week (NSW) is here to remind us of the power of handwritten notes, doodles, letters, and lists. It’s a call to slow down, get inspired, and reconnect with creativity—one page at a time.
This year’s campaign is bigger and bolder than ever, uniting top brands, local retailers, and the passionate stationery community. Whether you’re a journal junkie, a pen aficionado, or a paper perfectionist, there’s something for you.
Sarah Laker, event organiser, sums it up perfectly:
"NSW is all about reigniting people’s love for writing and stationery. It’s a celebration of creativity, quality tools, and the businesses that make it all possible. There's inspiration for everyone—whether you're discovering new products or showing off your current favourites!"
